My Son Interned for Kamala Harris — and It Was an Absolute Nightmare

/12 Comments/in , , /by

[My son Gregory, who interned for Vice President Harris, said she] vocally throws around “F-bombs” and other profanity constantly in her berating of staff and others. The staff is in complete fear of her and she uses her profanity throughout the day.

As [California] Attorney General, Senator Harris instructed her entire staff to stand every morning as she entered the office and say, “Good Morning General.”

Never once during [Gregory’s] month-long internship did Harris introduce herself to our son (as he was only in an office with 20 paid employees) and staff was too intimidated by her to introduce him. The only acknowledgment was a form letter of “thanks” signed by Harris given to him on his last day of service.

Gregory was also given instructions to never address Harris nor look her in the eye as that privilege was only allowed to senior staff members.

I don’t know about you but this is not the workplace of someone who respects her staff. For a woman of color to have employees stand when she enters the room smacks of a bygone era that we, as Americans, deplore and find demeaning. Furthermore, that she didn’t show the quality of leadership skills or even being a decent boss — much less the “class” to approach Gregory at least once during the month to say “Hi, I’m Kamala Harris and I want to thank you for volunteering in my office” — is really troubling. Finally, what is up with the “don’t look her in the eye” instruction? I know I wouldn’t want to work in that hostile environment!

Governor Withdraws From Consideration to Be Kamala Harris’ Running Mate

/5 Comments/in , , /by

North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper has taken himself out of consideration to be Kamala Harris’ running mate.

Cooper, who’s in the middle of his second term, said on Monday he won’t pursue the vice presidential role in Harris’ presidential campaign, eliminating one of about a half-dozen contenders who could still be selected.

“I strongly support Vice President Harris’ campaign for President. I know she’s going to win and I was honored to be considered for this role,” he wrote on X.

“This just wasn’t the right time for North Carolina and for me to potentially be on a national ticket. As I’ve said from the beginning, she has an outstanding list of people from which to choose, and we’ll all work to make sure she wins.”

Cooper was approached by Harris campaign aides about undergoing vetting, but he turned them down, a source told CNN. (Read more from “Governor Withdraws From Consideration to Be Kamala Harris’ Running Mate” HERE)

‘Murder Pornography’ and Pet Torture Found on Devices of 11-Year-Old Who Allegedly Made 20 Swatting and Bomb Threat Calls

/3 Comments/in , /by

Florida police say they have identified an 11-year-old who had allegedly made nearly two dozen swatting calls and bomb threats that tossed schools into chaos.

Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly said in a media briefing on Thursday that police were able to identify the person responsible for numerous calls of fake bomb threats and mass shooting reports through the help of the FBI.

After a 10-week investigation, police found their suspect turned out to be a juvenile boy who lived hundreds of miles away in Virginia. . .

When officers searched the boy’s residence and devices, they allegedly found even more disturbing evidence.

Staly said the videos included “torturing of pets, video decapitation, and murder pornography.” (Read more from “‘Murder Pornography’ and Pet Torture Found on Devices of 11-Year-Old Who Allegedly Made 20 Swatting and Bomb Threat Calls” HERE)

Celebs Spread Deceptively Edited Video, Falsely Claim Trump Will Outlaw Elections

/5 Comments/in , , /by

Hollywood celebrities are spreading a hoax claiming that former President Donald Trump will outlaw elections if he returns to the White House.

Their specious claim comes from a recent speech during which the GOP presidential nominee encouraged Christians to turn out en masse this November — with important context cut from a 27-second video clip.

“Four years, it will be fixed, it will be fine. You won’t have to vote anymore. In four years, you won’t have to vote again,” Trump said Friday to the crowd at Turning Point Action’s Believers’ Summit in West Palm Beach, Florida.

Celebrities twisted Trump’s remarks to claim that he will outright ban elections — when he was saying they needed to contribute to “a landslide that’s too big to rig” so a second Trump administration can reform election laws with voter ID requirements, thus reducing the need for massive turnout to counteract alleged voter fraud. The statement, in context, reads:

I will secure our elections. Our goal will be, as I said, one day voting with paper ballots, proof of citizenship, and a thing called voter ID. (Applause) You know, when you negotiate and I do that with the Democrats and I negotiate with them all the time on this. I say, look, we’re going to fix our laws with voting, we have to start with voter ID. Everybody has to — “No way!” — the discussion never even goes any further.

I say, we have to have voter ID. It’s called voter identification. “No, we’re not going to do it.” Now, there’s only one reason they do that. because they want to cheat. There’s only one reason.

. . .

And again, Christians — get out and vote! Just this time. (Applause) You won’t have to do it anymore. Four more years, you know what? It’ll be fixed, it’ll be fine. You won’t have to vote anymore. My beautiful Christians. I love you, Christians. I’m a Christian. I love you. Get out. You’ve got to get out and vote. In four years, you don’t have to vote again. We’ll have it fixed so good. You’re not going to have to vote.

Lawsuit Seeks to Prevent Kamala From Running for President

/5 Comments/in , , /by

A lawsuit has been filed in Florida asking that the secretary of state be told to remove the name of Kamala Harris from the 2024 presidential ballot and that preliminary and permanent injunctions be issued “enjoining defendant Harris from running.” . . .

She participated in “a massive fraud under Florida election law … to conceal Joe Biden’s debilitative poor health and at best dementia from Florida voters.”

The case was brought by lawyer Larry Klayman, who founded both Judicial Watch and Freedom Watch USA, and was filed in Florida courts in Leon County.

In a statement about the issue, Klayman said, “Kamala Harris is a dishonest far leftist political hack who now aspires to be president of the United States. But having participated in a fraud that put our national security at extreme risk by promoting an essentially braindead person, it would be an even greater risk if she were allowed to run for the presidency.

“Justice must be done as she and her co-conspirators must legally pay for their callous disrespect for the office of president of the United States by endangering Floridians and the American people as a whole.” (Read more from “Lawsuit Seeks to Prevent Kamala From Running for President” HERE)

China Expert Says Trump is Absolutely Correct About the T-Word

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Well-known China expert Gordon Chang has confirmed President Donald Trump is correct when he suggests tariffs are part of the solution of America’s business dealing with China.

Trump has suggested if elected, he’d pursue tariffs as high as 60% on Chinese goods being dumped on American shores.

“I can’t believe how many people are negative on tariffs that are actually smart people,” Trump said just a few weeks ago. “Economically, they’re phenomenal.”

In a commentary at Gatestone Institute, where he is distinguished senior fellow and advisory board member, Chang pointed out that immediately, “a lot of smart people” have insisted that high tariffs are “horrible.”

“Trump is right. Although these levies would increase costs to American consumers, the costs would not be nearly as great as experts say. Moreover, there are other considerations, both economic and national security, favoring raising tariffs now,” Chang wrote.

Disgusting Contagion: Americans Identifying as LGBTQ Double in Last Decade

/3 Comments/in , /by

The number of American adults who identify as LGBTQ+ has more than doubled in the last 12 years, according to new polling from Gallup.

The latest results show that 7.6% of U.S. adults now align themselves with the LGBTQ+ community — up from 3.5% in 2012, when Gallup started collecting this data. Compare that to four years ago, when the figure was 5.6%.

The latest findings continue a trend showing that the number of LGBTQ+ American adults has increased every year the analytics company has collected such metrics.

“Increases in LGBTQ+ identification in recent years have occurred as members of Generation Z and the millennial generation have entered adulthood,” according to the study.

“Adults in these younger generations are far more likely than those in older generations to identify as LGBTQ+.” (Read more from “Disgusting Contagion: Americans Identifying as LGBTQ Double in Last Decade” HERE)

An Air Canada flight was canceled Friday after a flight attendant went off on a passenger who reportedly asked for a blanket, according to multiple reports.

The reported incident took place aboard Flight AC73 from Morocco bound for Montreal, according to the New York Post (NYP). The argument reportedly stemmed from one of the passengers requesting a blanket, according to CTV News.

In a video circulating on social media filmed by an onlooking passenger, the Air Canada flight attendant appears to be yelling at a different passenger in both English and French.

“You will behave or we will get off!” the flight attendant yelled, according to the New York Post.

“I don’t want no bullying against my crew! Okay? Everyone behaves!” the Air Canada employee can be heard yelling in the video.

‘What a Variety of Whiteness We Have Here’: Hollywood Liberals, Political Elites Flock to Kamala Harris Fundraiser

/4 Comments/in , /by

A handful of Hollywood elites and top Democrat politicians flocked to a massive campaign fundraiser Monday evening discussing their support for the new presidential nominee Kamala Harris and encouraging their party voters to get out to the polls this November.

The “White Dudes For Harris” zoom conference began Monday evening at 8 p.m., bringing on a flurry of Hollywood liberals alongside major Democrat officials, such as U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg and North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper.

Just before the first major actor came out, the Democratic moderator introduced National Director of the Working Families Party Maurice Mitchell, who joked about joining the call as a black man.

“I want to address the obvious, I’m not sure if you noticed, but I am not a white man. Yet, here I am opening up the White Dudes for Kamala call and stranger things have happened,” Mitchell said before explaining his stance for joining the men.

Shortly after, Hollywood elite Jeff Bridges joined the call to discuss his support for the vice president, stating how “beautifully” President Joe Biden “passed the baton” to Harris after withdrawing from the 2024 presidential race on July 21.
